Windows 10: CPU utilisation at 100%

I got my desktop couple days ago less than a week prebuilt, whenever I download from stores such as Microsoft store and steam, it says my SSD is barely being used but my cpu utilisation goes to 100%. On idle my SSD sits at around 60*C and on download 65*C and when playing games at max settings such as Fortnite, it sits at around 76*C. I’m unsure if it’s my ssd or what.Highly appreciate anyone who helps me out.

100% disk utilisation slowing laptop

Hi Mara May,

Thank you for your assistance, I have had to type this in WORD and copy paste into the thread here due to all things through Chrome and Edge are so slow.

• Windows is always up to date with all updates.
  
• Norton Utilities is also up to date
  

• I have already done the following:
  
  • Tested HDD with HP Startup Menu and disk is 100% in order
    
  • Carried out SFC scan and corrupt files repaired
    
  • Did a DSIM restore health and no issues found-Disk utilisation is now generally below 50%
    
  • When using Chrome browser, to access this chat for example, its very slow with Disk utilisation at 10% or so but Memory at 55% with Chrome using most of it always.
    
  • So the problem is partially resolved except for when using Chrome
    
  • With Edge the memory goes up to 62% and HDD 100%
    
  • Did you suggested :Methods” 1, 2, 3, 5, 6
    
• I have not done a “clean boot” as it scares me at this stage.
  

It seems to be an issue between Chrome/Edge browsers as when I use Office 365’s Outlook, Word etc, the speed is now OK. Also the Disk utilisation seems to be generally acceptable but memory high that may be slowing the laptop down?

I have had issues with Teams simultaneously in that it’s so slow but with Zoom its normal, coincidence?

I look forward to your further suggestions.

Regards

 

100% CPU Utilisation

Please help, task manager is showing 100% utilisation which is incorrect according to my AMD system monitor. How can I fix this, it happened after the recent updates I made through windows. Has anyone else had this error and if so is there a fix so that
task manager reads right? Thanks

 

100% disk usage on boot up for at least 5 to 10 minutes

Hi there, I did a clean boot as you suggested and the boot up time became considerably longer and although disk usage was 100%, this was only for a minute or so. The program at the top of the disk utilisation list this time though was service host:superfetch.

However I then didn't disable anything in the services tab but disabled all the programs in the startup tab and restarted. This resulted in a very speedy boot up AND there was no 100% disk utilisation. I've done this several times enabling a couple of programs
on startup and the disk utilisation is no longer 100%.

It appears therefore as though it was some kind of conflict in the startup programs that was causing the 100% disk utilisation.

Thanks very much for your assistance.
